This would mean that anybody ever selling any firearm for any reason will have to register as an FFL? How asinine would that be lol. Either used firearm costs would plummet, as everyone selling would gradually lower the cost of the gun if they resold it, or nobody would ever sell their guns, which would be wasteful and anti-free trade.

It means that if you're making a business out of selling guns, you need to register as an FFL. If you're selling off well-worn equipment that you yourself used, not so much.

This is a dumb take. You can still sell it, but you must sell it through an FFL. Makes perfect sense. Legit 0 reasons to be against this.
